The man arrested last Saturday for allegedly stabbing his wife, a 26 year old Moroccan national, has been released from custody after being charged with assault and abuse. The man, also a Moroccan national, invoked his right to remain silent and his wife refused to ratify the denuncia she made to police on the day of the attack.
The accused, however, is subject to a restraining order and is barred from communicating with his wife.
The incident occurred last Saturday at their home in calle Valladolid, Fuengirola, when a heated discussion ended with the man allegedly stabbing his wife in the arm with a kitchen knife.
